Also known as Ecossaise

The Écossaise (in French, "Scottish") is a musical form and a type of contradanse in a Scottish style – a Scottish country dance at least in name – that was popular in France and Great Britain at the end of the 18th century and at the beginning of the 19th. Despite the Écossaise mimicking a Scottish country dance, it is actually French in origin. The Ecossaise was usually danced in 2/4 time in two lines, with Men facing the Women. As the dance is executed, couples progress to the head of the line.
